This week has presented more challenges then I imagined for my nutrition and fitness goals. I haven't been able to get the workouts in that I wanted and I see it getting more challenging as the week goes on because I am so busy with work. We are literally going from one city to the next with no free time inbetween. It's part of the job but it makes it hard for me to "commit to be fit".
Here is what I'm going to do: Instead of keeping track of calories and everything as I usually do, I am going to write down what I eat without the count. That way I am still recording it but since I don't have time and I'm not exactly sure what the calories/carbs/proteins/etc will be in the things I eat this will still work ok. For my workouts, I am going to try and plan the best I can and fit them in when I can. I wasn't able to work out today because I didn't have enough time inbetween events and I had to read materials for the next event. It looks like the next few days I will have some time to workout either in the early morning or the evening. I am going to try hard to stick with the times I have planned out for this.
A lot of my meals are going to be at venues and already made so I will need to make sure to make good choices and resist temptations. Also, some of our venues are at ale houses and one night we are going out to dinner in Napa. I am so excited but this is going to be sooo hard for me considering my goals :(
Here is what I have ate today so far:
Breakfast: Bowl of Kellogs Cereal with skim milk and a clementine
Morning Snack: Planter's peanuts bar and some apple chips
Lunch: Salad, green beans, broccoli, and chicken (this was catered so I didn't have a lot to work with but this is what I picked)
Dinner/Afternoon snack: I missed my snack because I got busy and I was also pretty full from lunch. I don't know what dinner will be yet. If they don't have something at the fair I'm going to, I will probably try and get a protein shake somewhere.
I am honestly kind of stressed if you haven't noticed. I have been doing so well with my fitness and nutrition plan and this week is hard because it is hard to keep track of things like I usually do and we are so busy. Plus some of my meals I don't have a ton of control of. I don't want to make excuses but I am just kind of frustrated right now because I have done so well up to this point. I think I have done pretty good considering the circumstances and I am going to make good choices with food and get the workouts in when I can. I can only try my best and make the most out of the situation I'm in.
